I just got home from dropping Lugnut off at his first day of preschool. Much like his first day at nursery school last year, he walked in, started playing, and all but shooed me and Wing out the door. After his hour-long tantrum during the Child Find appointment, I am relieved that he felt comfortable in the classroom.
We are fond of saying about Lugnut, “He’s 100% of everything.” If he’s happy, it’s 100% happy - and he’ll let you know it. If he’s upset, it’s 100% angry loudness. So this morning, with Wing asleep and Lug at school, the house is very, very quiet.
It’s a strange feeling to have 3/4 of the kids in school - one part lonely, one part liberating, and one part something else I can’t quite describe.

One part partial empty nest.

Woo hoo!
Of course for me I find when the kids are not home I actually get less accomplished because I “waste” my “me” time reading and playing on the computer. Sigh…
